💬 What Parents Say

  • 💡Book your tour at least 24 hours in advance and call ahead at 305-969-3696 to confirm specific animal availability, as the lineup varies based on each animal's health and temperament. This ensures you get the experience you're hoping for.
  • 💡Plan to arrive early to your reserved tour time—there's a $15 late fee for arriving late. Bring a valid photo ID that matches your reservation name, as this is required for entry.
  • 💡If you're interested in multiple activities, do the zoo tour before ATVs to maximize your energy and enjoyment of both experiences.
  • 🕐Avoid major holidays (Halloween through Labor Day has multiple blackout dates) when planning your visit. Tuesday-Sunday 10am-6pm is when tours run, with limited holiday hours.
  • 💡Consider gifting an animal encounter experience—reviews highlight this as a memorable, special gift that creates magical moments, particularly the lemur and capybara interactions.
